No bike lanes until riders learn to read

•No Name: “On bike lanes: I’d like to know who’s going to actually teach the bikers how to ride on the street. After having a number of bicyclists run stop signs and dart out in the middle of the street and having almost hit them because they don’t know how to ride their bikes properly, I’m wondering who’s going to teach them? Are the police going to be able to ticket them? Will they be required to have lights on their bikes?”

Whoever does the training, I’m hoping they do a better job than they did with the car and pickup drivers.

•No Name: “Sorry, Jim, you cannot take the traffic signal at Howard and 24th. We need that signal because of the illegal boulevard sign completely blocking our view of 24th Street southbound traffic. Why would you even suggest such a thing?”

•Dave from Port Huron: “The lady who was killed by the driver of the white Camaro, how could she be an ‘alleged victim?’ She was a victim; she was killed.”

•Dave from Port Huron: “On Marcotte: You claim this new company is cheaper and you took it upon yourself to hire them without a vote. If I remember, the last time you got rid of waste disposal, it was voted on and Marcotte got the bid. Marcotte has been the best trash refuge company that we have had.”

City Council voted unanimously to accept the lower bid.

•City Taxpayer: “I applaud what the City Council did with our waste management. And as far as Nancy Cramer’s comment today how wonderful Marcotte was, Monday they left a huge dump of yard waste in the middle of the road. I had to go out and clean it up. Hopefully we can do better with Emterra.”

•Grandma from Burtchville Township: “To the woman who drove the white Camaro and caused the death of an innocent woman on 24th Street: Wah wah wah. Complaining about her injuries, no remorse for what she did and the loss of life. Shame on you.”

•No Name: “This may sound mean and inhumane, but I think Theresa Marie Gafken should get her rehab when Miss Donahue can have rehab. Too bad there isn’t the death penalty in Michigan because I sure would vote for it for her. But every dog has its day in court so we have to prove she was guilty and I sure hope they have the evidence to do it.”
